All communications should be addressed: HARRY C. SMITH. Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature. { 1894 to 1896. { 1896 to 1898. { 1900 to 1902. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. Congressman Bartholdt "took a fall" out of his democratic colleagues, especially those from the south, that they are not likely to forget soon. Read his speech on page 1 of this paper. Representative Hayes' bill, to in part reimburse a Mr. Tolles for $6,000 fire losses sustained in the Springfield riot will hardly be passed by the state assembly. The great bulk of the loss fell upon white property owners. Ex-President Cleveland denies dining Hon. C. H. J. Taylor (deceased), or any other Afro-American, at the White House. He did, however, entertain at one or more of his social functions in the White House, the Hon. James Monroe Trotter (deceased), his recorder of deeds of the District of Columbia, and also Mrs. B. K. Bruce—if memory serves us correctly. Mrs. Bruce assisted the president's wife "receive."—Cleveland Gazette. Well, if he did, has that helped us as a race? And as for that, in most great functions in the south, the Negro helps to "receive" (the hats at the front door, the gents to the parlors) and wears Costume de Riguer, with low cut vest and patent leather shoes. The Negro always helps the white folks to "receive;" but in what capacity? See!—Mobile Press. Yes, Brother Johnson, we "see!" But we do not want you for a moment to think that Mrs. Bruce did any such "receiving" as you indicate. She was at Mrs. Cleveland's side, her equal in every respect, at that White House social function. This and Mr. Trotter's presence were and are helpful, as are all such recognitions, however, much the average southern white "gentlemun, sah," may "boil and slop over" as a result of them. This our esteemed confrere knows full well, even if it is not policy for our brethren in the southland to say so. The Afro-American is entitled to just as much social and every other kind of "equality" as he merits, and should enjoy it, too, whenever and wherever he can in a modest, unassuming and proper way when it is beneficial. Our good friend Smith of The Cleveland, O., Gazette usually goes for the south whenever a lynching takes place, but down here in many instances an atrocious crime is not met with lynching and in cases where lynching is resorted to, it is the individual who is either accused or convicted of crime that is lynched and the remainder of the Negro population is not disturbed; so quietly is the work done, that not half dozen Negroes know of it until the next day and the burning out of the whole section of the town and general persecution of the race is not resorted to. And we might add, that Alabama has not had a governor in 20 years who would have acted as indifferently, and cowardly as did Herrick and all we have had in that time have been democrats.—Mobile (Ala.) Weekly Press. At Springfield, our people, outside of that "levee" or bad section, were not molested in any way, during the recent riot and lynching. The Associated Press liar "got busy" and sent out different reports, it is true, but he simply did what he usually does when opportunity affords, and our people are concerned. Even in the "tough" or "levee" district, no one was injured except the Kentucky brute lynched. Nevertheless the lynching-rioting lawlessness was inexcusable, a shame and disgrace to the entire state we all feel keenly, and for which, in our opinion and that of thousands of others here in Ohio, the mayor of Springfield and sheriff of Clarke county, are directly responsible. They could easily have prevented it. As to Gov. Herrick's palpable failures to date in connection with the Dixon lynching and Springfield riot, we shall have something to say ere long unless he very soon shows some results along the line of his many newspaper interviews immediately following the disgraceful affair. Up to date, he has proven, decidedly, the weakest governor Ohio has ever had. BRAIN TO THE FRONT. Three hundred and sixty-one patients have been granted Afro-Americans within less than a half decade. Granville T. Woods, an Afro-American, has thirty-five patents to his credit. Very little account is taken of the skill and ingenuity displayed by our men of this day, not even as much as in the early history of the republic. Yet it is in evidence that along this line the race is making wonderful strides. Indeed! some very remarkable things are being evolved which redound largely to the Afro-American. But the sentiment which so cruelly proscribes a man, because of his skin, remains to-day quite un- willing to acknowledge and announce to the public that worth and merit which are the rightful title of all men. In all the avenues and conditions of man's active life are associated some brave endeavor of the Afro-American. The sentiment uppermost demands the exclusive recognition of the achievements of the dominant race. But a stronger and the more irresistible appeal salutes our ears in louder and with no uncertain tones, demanding that BRAIN must go to the front. To ignore the claims of genius may be part of weak and untutored minds, but in all progressive lands reason must ultimately reign. In the face of such conditions the Afro-American must and will find an equal passage, be the road ever so rough and rugged. The Bell Telephone Co. uses the telephone transmitter which was patented by our Granville T. Woods, and so indispensible is this patent that it finds ready preference with the companies. The controller system on the Manhattan Elevated railway is the invention of Mr. Woods, though thousands are quite unaware of the fact. In many respects his inventions have preference by virtue of their superior merit. Art, invention and genius are but the exponent on the reflex of a powerful and incontrovertable truth which cannot be destroyed. It matters not whether a truth emanates from an Anglo-American or an Anglo-African, it is unalterably the same. It matters not that a vain and man-hating southern oligarchy or northern half-backs may spurn the proud endeavor of the mind ordained to assert itself; yet the dawning light of quickening genius shall and will reign. It matters not that persecution, opposition, caste and injustice confront the Afro-American from a thousand valleys and hilltops; yet the black man is coming—coming! God lives and God reigns, and "behind the dim unknown He stands within the shadow, keeping watch above his own." PLEADS ELOQUENTLY THE CAUSE OF THE PARTY. Hon. Joseph C. Manning, of Alabama, discusses national issues and applauds the republican party for the marked success of its principles. Mr. Manning becomes felicitous as he portrays the glorious and triumphs of the party of Lincoln and Grant. With crowning delight, he points in glowing terms to the proud record inaugurated and sustained since the days of its formation. "It has stood the test of mighty opposition and takes rank as one of the grandest political bodies on earth. To its achievements is due the marvelous growth and power of the republic." Mr. Manning feels himself at home in his commendations of a powerful government made great and prosperous through the agency of the world's greatest political organization, and does not hesitate to declare his unqualified love and admiration for our free institutions, quickened and preserved by the guiding hand of the men who have led this party on to signal glory. Every utterance of this man carries with it a striking significance of the possibilities of the republican party. All that is claimed in these possibilities are true; "for," as he affirms, "it is the republican party that has made possible this matchless history for our republican government, and it has done it well even against opposing forces. It has espoused the cause of a protective tariff system and one which has become an accepted part of our system of government. It has championed the cause of a staple currency and its wise and just treatment of an issue which has resulted only in a satisfactory adjustment of this question. It has always been and is to-day the only resourceful party, eminent in leadership and distinguished as a party productive of statesmanship. Today it has a Roosevelt who is not only our great party leader, but he is our leader and our president, standing not only for progress and prosperity, but for all humanity and for all posterity, and he evinces his marvelous strength by the force of his fearless advocacy of just principles and by the unconquerable daring to do right in every circumstance, and under every condition. He knows little and cares less of the art of the trimmer in politics, but he knows much and prides himself more in the integrity of the people of this great nation. He is the realism of invincible republicanism in irresistible motion. He will again receive the unanimous and the overwhelming support of a patriotic people, pledged to the best interest of the country. And when the career of this wonderful man shall have closed, then his pronounced Americanism and emphatic patriotism will have placed his name, resplendent with the fame of the fathers of the country, with the renowned of our American Union." The above are brave and lofty utterances. Our ardent prayer is that as patriotism continues to gather its growth and the spirit of Christian liberty shall reveal itself in its true light, that in keeping with the Golden Rule and the obligations of our constitution, every man irrespective of race or color shall share the full blessings of an equal manhood.

Editor, Leader:—My attention has just been called to your reprint of Major Kirkpatrick's letter to the Army and Navy Journal of recent date, and your editorial anent the same. Permit me to call your attention to the fact that Company A, Ninth Battalion, O. N. G., was assembled in its armory in plenty of time to have headed off the mob and to have prevented the Springfield riots, even if the major's companies were not. Whose fault is it that Company A was not used? That is a vital question.

One of Yale's Scientists Says We Eat Too Much. Washington, April 21.—The chief paper read yesterday before the National Academy of Sciences was a description of a series of experiments recently conducted by the Sheffield scientific school, of Yale, to determine if the average human being is not eating too much. Prof. Russell H. Chittenden, the director of the school, who conducted the experiments, and who read the paper, made the statement that the average healthy man eats from two to three times as much as he needs to keep him in perfect physical and mental health and vigor. Prof. Chittenden said three classes of men were experimented on, several professors at the school, including Prof. Chittenden himself, several students and a squad of United States soldiers. There was a gradual reduction of meat and other proteid foods, with little if any increase in starch and other foods in nearly all the tests. No fixed regimen was required in any case, the endeavor being to satisfy the appetite of each subject. In only one case was meat entirely eliminated from the diet. At the end of the experiments, which lasted from six months until nearly a year and were concluded only a few days ago, the entire lot of men who had been Prof. Chittenden's subjects were in the best of health. Their weight in some cases was almost exactly the same as when the experiments were begun and in some slightly lower. Their bodily vigor was greater and their strength was much greater, partially owing to their regular physical exercises during the experiments and partially owing, Prof. Chittenden believes, to the less amount of food eaten. The daily consumption of food at the close of the experiments was much less than the recognized standard and from a third to a half much as the average man eats. LARGE AND STORMY. West Virginia Democratic Convention was Full of Excitement. Charleston, W. Va., April 21.—The largest and the stormiest democratic convention ever known in this state was held here Wednesday. Many democrats took advantage of the occasion to vent their criticisms of others. Warren Hayes, who was selected as a district delegate and who is a supporter of Hearst for the presidency, while making a speech from a box in the theater where the convention was held, scored ex-Senator Camden as a bolter in the past, and with emphasis gave the lie to a delegate who, an hour previous, had been selected as an alternate to St. Louis, because the alternate had branded Hays in open convention as a greenbacker. The alternate, Col. McCoy, of Tyler county, leaped upon a chair in the convention hall and responded in stentorian tones that Mr. Hayes was a liar. Senator Camden and the reorganizers were otherwise fiercely attacked by "regulars," but they had many warm supporters, many of whom were Bryan democrats, who came to their ald at the proper time. And yet, notwithstanding the stormy scenes, the convention ended in perfect harmony and amid enthusiasm. Henry G. Davis, who is a cousin of Senator Gorman, was forced to respond with a speech to repeated and urgent calls. When Mr. Davis mentioned the name of Gorman the delegates gave a remarkable ovation. The four delegates at large and all the district delegates except the two from the Fourth district are for Gorman for president first and Parler second. ACQUITTED OF BRIBERY. Jury Decides that Senator Burns Did Not Receive Pay for Supporting a Certain Bill. Grand Rapids, Mich., April 21.—State Senator David E. Burns was yesterday acquitted of bribery in connection with the Lake Michigan water scandal. The jury was out five hours. The charge of bribery against Senator Burns related to a bill which he introduced in the state legislature of 1893. It was alleged that this bill was backed by the men interested in the water deal and that Senator Burns was paid $200 for his efforts in support of the measure. The chief witness for the prosecution was ex-City Attorney Lant K. Salsbury, who swore he paid Burns the money in the interest of the Lake Michigan deal. The defense was a general denial and alibi as to the time Salsbury said he paid the money to Burns. The case has been on trial for two weeks. This was the first acquittal in the water scandal cases. Three present and former city officials have been convicted and ten have pleaded guilty. The Colored Man Wins. Springfield, Ill., April 21.—The supreme court yesterday, in the famous case of the mayor and city council of Alton against Scott Bibbs, colored, for a second time reversed the decision of the Madison county circuit court, which refused to issue an order on the mayor and council of Alton to admit Bibbs to the Washington school, that being the nearest school for him to attend. The Douglass and Lovejoy schools had been set apart in Alton for use of colored pupils. The supreme court holds that the contention of the city council that no discrimination was made against Bibbs on account of his color is ridiculous. Instructed for Roosevelt. Burlington, Vt., April 21.—The republican state convention here yesterday elected four delegates to the national convention at Chicago and instructed them to vote for the nomination of President Roosevelt. Three of the national delegates, United States Senator Dillingham, Dr. W. Seward Webb, of Shelburne, and H. N. Turner, of St. Johnsbury, were chosen without a contest. For fourth place, H. S. Bingham, of Bennington, deefated George M. Powers, of Morrisville. The platform adopted strongly endorsed the administration. A Record of Railroad Accidents. Washington, April 21.—The interstate commerce commission has issued a report showing that in the United States during October, November, and December, last, the total number of railroad casualties aggregated 14,485, a decrease of 702 as compared with the preceding quarter. There were killed 175 passengers and 991 employees, and 1,937 passengers and 11,382 employees were injured. The damage by these accidents to cars, engines, and roadways, amounted to $2,527,600, a decrease of $57,348. TAKEN FROM LIFE: BEFORE AND AFTER TREATMENT.

Her advice, slightness, change in business, journeys, lawsuits, contested wills, divorce and speculation is valuable and reliable. She reads your deathy - good or bad; she withholds nothing. MRS. MARTH, born with a double veil, is a seventh daughter, tells your entire life—pass present and future—in a DEAD TRANCE; has the power of any two clairvoyants you ever met. She tells whether your present sweetheart will be true to you and if he will marry you: if you have no sweetheart, she will tell you when you will have, and his name, business and date of acquaintance. Clairvoyantly ALL YOUR FUTURE will be written in an honest, clear and plain manner, and in a dead transient should know the success of their husbands and children; young ladies should know everything about their sweethearts and intended husband.

Macamie is the only one in the world who can tell you the FULL NAME of your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tells whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people seem to have good luck all the time, and no matter what they do they seem to prosper, while others, yourself may be, have such a hard time to get along, and no matter how hard they try, they find at the end of the year they are no better off than when they started. This is because you have to count the right medium, while the successful people, in all probabilities, have been to one of the genuine mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth. She will tell you what your trouble is, as she understands the spells and evil influences. She has spent years helping distressed persons and has brought thousands to success.

His remains were taken to Cincinnati, Monday. He leaves a young widow. He is the man who was scalded at the Hollenden hotel. The congregation of Antioch church was greatly benefited last Sunday by Rev. J. S. Jackson's sermon. At 3 p.m. the pastor baptized five young boys and two girls of the Sunday-school. The evening service was well attended. The sermon was preached by the pastor. The Gazette acknowledges the receipt, the first of the week, of an invitation from Mrs. L. S. Dover, of Hot Springs, Ark., to attend the marriage of her daughter, Mattie Louise, to William Howard Young; and to attend the reception following, at Odd Follows' auditorium, on Friday evening, April 22. The "Grafters," several of whom were more or less democrats not many months ago, have announced Attorney Alexander Martin as a candidate for councilman-at-large. They do not say on what ticket, doubtless because it was not many months ago that Martin was most vigorously flirting with democracy. The naval cadet appointment will be open only to those boys residing in the Twenty-first Congressional district, which comprises the major part of the city east of the Cuyahoga river. The examination will be held in Cleveland the first part of May, most probably at the Central High school. Let our high school and college graduates, eligible, take this examination. Gertrude Thompson filed an answer to the divorce petition of Sidney B. Thompson last week Friday, in which she alleged that he drove her to anger and jealousy by associating with other women and that this accounts for her swearing at him. She says he struck, beat, slapped and horsewhipped her. Thompson is a messenger in the employ of Gov. Herrick. His wife wants alimony. Quarterly meeting services at Cory chapel, Sunday, were unusually impressive. Rev. Simmons, P. E., preached at each service and one person united with the church. Collection, $38.75; the Sunday-school hour has been changed from 3 p. m. to 1:30 p. m., right after the morning services. It will close at 2:30 p. m. The Ladies' Aid society gave a social at Mrs. Corbin's, Thursday evening. The lectures for the benefit of the Epworth League, given by the pastor on Wednesday evening, should be better attended. The Charity Ball financial report published in The Gazette last week caused a great deal of comment and very properly, too. The fact that Blue, Crawford, Fleming & Co., had managed to get $37.33 and the Old Folks' home only $181.87 rather staggered people. The cash returns from the ads., solicited by Crawford for the program, amounted to $33. Although supposedly working for a charitable institution, he charged practically one-third of this $33, or $10.83 for his services, soliciting. This is certainly "fierce." A member of the Charity Ball committee tells us that Crawford's charge for distributing placards was another fearful "stab" because only about 100 placards were printed, Fleming, Blue & Co., charging $4.50 for this work, and $15 for printing a program, the ads. in which Crawford charged $10.85 to get. The program, therefore, evidently, netted Blue, Crawford & Co., a good deal more than it did the Old Folks' home. Although a member of the Charity Ball committee, Blue charged it $4 for an ad. The more one studies that financial report the worse certain things appear. Chairman Fleming might have presented the tickets instead of charging $1.50 for them. The Charity Ball seems to have been given for the benefit for the Old Folks home and OTHERS. STRIKES BACK! A Pastor Misrepresented, States Facts — Personal — Social — Church News.

Dear Sir—In answer to the article in the Pioneer Press, W. Va., Steubenville items, in that article, the things mentioned were of the vilest sort, and untruth. I did not say to any living man or woman that lynching was justifiable. So far as lying around the court house to get on the juries, the party or parties who are responsible for the article under consideration, sought to slander me as they have others. My reputation will bear inspection in my church, on the street, at home, or abroad. When I have business at the court house I go and stay as long as I want to, and whose business is it? As to grasping for the mighty dollar, I see to it that the debts of my church are paid. For that reason, her credit is good in the best banks of the city. When any of my church are sick, I visit them if I know it. If any die I preach their furnerals and bury them, and visit the well ones when I think they need it. I go when and where I please. Now, if that items-writer was not on the jury whose fault was it? The courts knows whom they want. The collection referred to in the article was not for the pastor at all. So, writer, tell the truth at all times. REV. PRIMUS ALSTON. JOHNSON VS. COTTRILL. Case Carried Into the Courts—That Charge of Assault—Dr. Johnson, a Former Cleveland. Toledo, O.—Charles Cottrill, deputy county recorder, was a few days ago bound over to probate court in the sum of $100 bond by Judge Mitchell, of the city justice court, after a preliminary hearing on a charge that he attempted to provoke a breach of the peace, by spitting at, and upon, Dr. Philip Johnson, the complaining witness. Bond was furnished at once by Recorder Barkdull. When the case came up Cottrill was asked if he hadn't been arrested at Columbus some years ago for assaulting a white woman. His counsel vigorously objected, but Cottrill arose and said that the charge was a "conspiracy" organized against him by men who were afterward sent to jail because of it. He is a candidate for county recorder and is being bitterly opposed by many of our best people here. Cottrill has no chance to get the nomination, for this and many other good reasons. He is pretty generally disliked by both our people and the whites. Dr. Philip Johnson is a graduate of a Cleveland medical college and a former resident of that city. "Representative" Henry Eubanks, of Cleveland, whose nomination and election to the legislature was so strenuously opposed by the great mass of the best Afro-Americans of Cleveland, again "butted in" by sending a letter here "in Cottrill's interest." It only angered our people all the more. Henry certainly shows the need of a political guardian. Some one ought to take him "out behind the barn" and give him a good, plain talking to—one that even he could understand. HAYS ENTITLED TO CREDIT. And Not Henry Eubanks, for the defeat of the Barber Bill—The Latter's Cleveland Friends Receive a Timely Suggestion. Columbus, O., April 19, 1904. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir—I see by all, or nearly all, especially the Cleveland papers, that Henry T. Eubanks is given all the credit for the defeat of the Farner Barber bill last month, and no credit is given Mr. Hays, of Hamilton county. We all remember two years ago the great fight and efforts put forth to pass the Middleswart barber bill. Mr. Hays made that fight alone against the bill and won a great victory for it was reported that thirty-five votes were in favor of its passage and sixty-one against it; whereas, the Farner bill had thirty-one votes in favor of its passage and fifty-seven against it. So it would seem that Hays made a better showing alone than when he had the help of Eubanks. Some people here seem to feel that Eubanks' friends in Cleveland should be a little more modest, and not so glaringly claim all the glory for the defeat of the Farner bill. Mr. Hays, as all know, is a very quiet and unassuming man who went about his work of defeating the bill in an intelligent and efficient manner, and did the work handsomely and thoroughly. LODESTONE.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, APRIL 23, 1904. WHEN YOU GO TO THE WORLD'S FAIR Suggestions That Should Be Helpful to the Stranger in St. Louis-No Trouble When You Get Your Bearings-The Greatest of World's Expositions. THE EXHIBITION OF THE NEW YORK CITY MUSEUM. PALACE OF LIBERAL ARTS AND MINES, WITH THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT BUILDING IN DISTANCE. --- It will be worth all the self-denial that one may practice for several years to see the World's Fair of 1904 at St. Louis. Money saved, earned or borrowed cannot be better spent than in getting acquainted with the world's progress as revealed at this latest and greatest of expositions. All of us cannot travel around the world to take note of what the nations are doing, but the nations from all around the world desire us to know and have sent their best works to St. Louis to be placed on display. Therefore, by all means or any means, see the World's Fair. It means everything to your future growth of mind, to your present pleasure and lifelong satisfaction. Who that saw the Centennial exposition or the Columbian exposition that does not revert to it with recollections of keen pleasure? Within the two square miles of the Louisiana Purchase exposition at St. Louis there is more to be seen than ever was brought together in ten times the space before. It is a great collection of expositions massed into one. It is nearly twice as large as the Columbian exposition at Chicago, nearly ten times larger than the Pan-American exposition at Buffalo. Every exhibit palace offers the equivalent of a splendid exposition, each covering many acres of space. The largest of these is the Palace of Agriculture, with its 23 acres under roof and filled to the doors with the most wonderful agricultural collection ever assembled upon any occasion. The important states and nations of the world are all here alongside great numbers of individual exhibitors. Five great staples have been chosen for extraordinary display. Corn, cotton, PALACE OF LIBERAL ARTS AND MINES, V ERNMENT BUILDING sugar, rice and tobacco are here arrayed as they have never been before and undreamed possibilities are revealed to inquiring minds. Such a dairy display was never attempted and such a collection of farm machinery and tools was never placed on exhibition. The Palace of Transportation is next in size, covering 15 acres. One may only hint at the wonders it contains. The historical exhibit of locomotives is one of the features. It shows the development of 75 years in locomotive construction. Strange indeed is the person who, is not yet impressed with these evidences of man's long struggle with the problem of rail transportation, the most civilizing of modern influences, next to the newspaper, which must always stand first. To describe in detail this exhibit would be a long story in itself. The exhibit is made complete by the installation of the largest locomotive ever built and by some magnificent imported locomotives. We cannot leave the Palace of Transportation without a reference to the great automobile show, the motor boats and other water craft, and the great carriage display. Now let us cross the flower gardens to the Palace of Machinery just south of Transportation. The huge power generators are the first things to arrest the eye—the Allis-Chalmers engine of 5,000-horse power, the Curtis steam turbine of 8,000-horse power, the Parsons steam turbine of 5,000 kilowatts, the four Westinghouse generators of 3,000-horse power each, and each as high as a house. And then other generators great and small of all kinds—the most wonderful display of engines ever assembled. But these are not all. Think of ten acres of glistening machines of every kind and you have some idea of the contents of the Palace of Machinery. We cross the lagoon to the eastward and come to the beautiful Palace of Electricity, with eight acres of exhibits from many countries which show the marvelous development of electrical science. To the north again over one of the arched bridges we approach the Palace of Varied Industries, viewing its wonderful grace and splendor as we go. Here are 14 acres of exhibits from all over the world. The Palace of Manufactures is the same size and stands on the opposite side of the Plaza of St. Louis. It is equally interesting in the variety and newness of its contents. Here again the nations of the world and the manufacturers from all parts of the United States display their best products. Opposite the Palace of Manufacture to the southward is the Palace of Education, this being the first time that education has been allotted a great building all its own. A variety of schools in daily session are the feature of this eight-acre display. The two exhibit buildings in the eastern part of the main group are Mines and Metallurgy and Liberal Arts. The Department of Mines and Metallurgy has a 12-acre outdoor display in addition to the nine acres under roof. The United States Government building is on a broad terrace half way up the hill in the extreme eastern part of the grounds. Uncle Sam never had such a large exhibit building at an exposition before. It is nearly 800 feet long and 250 feet wide. Another building devoted to fisheries built in the style of an old Roman house stands upon lower ground directly southwest from the larger building. The outdoor display of ordnance is not the least interesting of the government exhibits. The Palace of Art at the World's Fair contains 135 galleries. Each gallery is a large room, lighted from above and filled with the choicest works. All countries of the world in which art has made noteworthy progress are represented. The group of buildings which house this magnificent display represents an expenditure of more than $1,000,000. The group is situated upon high ground south of Festival hall. The Festival hall is the center piece of a rich architectural work crowning the hill which rises above the Grand Basin and upon whose slopes are the Cascades and gardens. Here another million dollars has been expended to produce a decoration that will distinguish this exposition from all others. In a short article such as this one can only refer to such great features as the Philippine exhibit, covering 40 acres and containing more than 1,000 natives from those far-off Pacific islands; the United States government Indian exhibit, covering many acres and occupying a large building; the exhibit of the United States bureau of plant industry, consisting of an outdoor map of the United States, covering four acres; the great athletic field where the Olympian games of 1904 will be held; the Aerial concourse where the airship and balloon contests, having prizes aggregating $200,000, will take place; the anthropology exhibit; the 40 or more state buildings; the outdoor exhibits of the departments of agriculture and horticulture, covering many-acres; the Palace of Horticulture, NES, WITH THE UNITED STATES GOV- ING IN DISTANCE. 400 by 800 feet, containing the largest exhibits of horticulture ever brought together; the beautiful Temple of Fraternity; the magnificent buildings erected by foreign nations; the great Inside inn, where 6,000 guests may find accommodation at rates from $1.50 to $5.00 per day; the extensive live stock pavilion; the great landscape clock made of flowers, 112 feet in diameter, and giving the correct time of day; the intramural railway, which gives a seven-mile ride for a single fare, and many other things of interest to visitors. Even to the timid traveler St. Louis presents no complications. It is all as plain as a b c when once you get your bearings. The streets all run east and west or north and south with rarely a confusing diagonal. Market street and its western extension, Laclede avenue, are the dividing line which separates the northern and southern sections of the city. All streets north and south from Market begin their numbering at Market, so that No. 2024 South Broadway, for example, would be 20 blocks south from Market street. All east and west streets begin their numbers at the Mississippi river, so that No. 3120 would be 31 blocks west of the river. Sometimes in a long block 200 numbers are allowed All trains into St. Louis arrive at Union station, one of the finest railroad terminals in the world. The station is on the south side of Market street between Eighteenth and Twentieth streets, so that when the visitor emerges from the station he finds himself at the beginning of the city numbering both north and south and 18 blocks from the river. Standing on Market street with his back to the station the downtown or main business section of the city is to his right about one mile. The World's Fair is to his left, westward about five miles. All the street cars are so labeled that he may easily know which cars to take. Cars running north on Eighteenth street, at his right, intersect the several car lines running between the World's Fair and the business section of the city. By walking one, two or three blocks to the north the visitor may get a car east or west, or if baggage laden he may take a car on Eighteenth street and get a transfer without extra fare to any of the east-and-west lines except the Suburban, which is a separate car system. Practically all St. Louis will be a lodging house during the exposition. The hotels have greatly multiplied in number and thousands of private homes are open for the accommodation of guests. The rates at the hotels are generally on the European plan, as it will be more convenient for guests to get their meals wherever meal-time may find them. Prices for rooms in private houses range from 50 cents to $2.50 per day per person. The prevailing rate is $1.00 per person, and in nearly every case good accommodations with all conveniences and in good localities may be had for this price. The higher rates presuppose larger rooms and more luxurious quarters. But no one need pay more than $1.00. The hotel prices have a wider range according to class. Thousands of cafes, restaurants and lunch rooms will supply meals at fair prices, as the competition for patronage will be brisk and prices cannot be exorbitant. --- WHERE THE BLAME LAY. Sternly the judge regarded the prisoner before him. He beheld a man of tender, unripe years, whose face was fair to look upon, bearing as it did every known mark of honesty. Appearances gave no reason for committing the crime, and vet the jury had decided, on first ballot, that the prisoner was guilty. In fact, the plea for the defense was very weak, says the New York Times. "It seems incredible," said the judge, "that a man with your connections should have stooped so low as to become a common forger. Surely some one else must have been the cause of your downfall. A woman?" "There was some one," replied the prisoner, "but that some one was not a woman. It is yourself, your honor." I: ejaculated the judge, amazedly. "Just so. A short time ago I was a member of the graduating class in my college. You were one of the speakers at the farewell session. You may remember your words: 'The world lies ahead of you. But you must push your way steadily. I want each one of you to forge to the front; I want to soon see each occupying a prominent position in the eyes of your families and of the world.'" The prisoner paused and smiled. "I forged quicker than the others. I've gained a place before the public. And now, what next?" "Three years," laconically said the judge. "Three years," laconically said the judge. "Next case!" 1901-1904. NeKoma, Ill., April 18th.—Away back in 1901 Mr. Albert E. Larson of this place was suffering with Kidney disease and backache. The pain he was called upon to endure was very great and rendered his life almost a burdens to him. He heard of Dodd's Kidney Pills and began to use them and almost at once he began to get better. He had been unable to work, but Dodd's Kidney Pills soon made him able to go to work again. He used the remedy till he was completely cured. He says he has grown stronger year by year since he got rid of his old trouble. "Dodd's Kidney Pills certainly gave me 2 complete and permanent cure, for I have felt stronger since I used them in 1901 than ever before. I can do harder work now in 1904 than I could last year. I cannot praise Dodd's Kidney Pills enough. I would not be without them in the house." Something Like a Waiter. you a vacancy among your watters? Hotel Proprietor—Well, I don't know.

Doan's Kidney Pills are quick to soothe and strengthen sick kidneys, and help them free the system from poison. Read how valuable they are, even in cases of long-standing: L. C. Lovell, of 415 North First St., Spokane, Wash., says: "I have had trouble from my kidneys for the past ten years. It was caused by a strain to which I paid little attention. But as I neglected the trouble, it became worse and worse until any strain or a slight cold was sure to be followed by severe pain across my back. Then the action of the kidney secretions became deranged and I was caused much annoyance besides loss of sleep. Doan's Kidney Pills were brought to my notice and after taking them a short time their good effect was apparent. All the pain was removed from my back and the kidney secretions became normal. Doan's Kidney Pills do all that is claimed for them." A FREE TRIAL of this great remedy which cured Mr. Lovell will be mailed on application to any part of the United States.

It equalizes the circulation of the blood, tranquilizes the nervous system and regulates the bodily functions. Peruna, unlike so many spring medicines, is not simply a physic or stimulant or nervine. It is a natural tonic and invigorator. If you do not receive prompt and satisfactory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
